Default When I highlight sentence to change to italics, entire doc change

When I highlight a sentence in my document and change the formatting to
italics, or underlined, or even the font, the entire document changes. If I
then press Ctrl+Z the entire document changes back to what it was originally
but the highligted part is then italics, or underlined. Why? And how can I
fix this?

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting...eformatted.htm. If
you are using Word 2007, post back, as the article may not be 100% helpful
in that case.

Thank you for pointing that out. I obviously haven't been reading the whole
article recently!

So far I've managed to update all but eight of my 57 word.mvps.org articles,
and Webmaster John McGhie has published all but six of my updated versions,
so most of the "easy" articles have been updated; I've been saving the
"hard" ones (such as http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/TableBasics.htm
and http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Customizat...alTemplate.htm,
both of which will probably need a new article just for 2007) for last. g
